Abstract
Poor reporting reduces research usability. We reviewed 148 meta-research studies that assessed reporting guideline adherence in published studies and found that 10% reported replicable adherence coding methods and 33% reported individual study results. Research on reporting is poorly reported and underlines the need for solutions to improve reporting.
